WEEKLY REVIEW.

During the past week trade has continued
without much variation in value and with
out any material change in prices. Most of
the orders are for small quantities to meet
present requirements, the large trade not
showing any disposition to anticipate their
wants. The general tone of the market is
steady, with perhaps slight tendency
toward less firmness i'll few lines and
greater strength in Others Manufacturers
are in most cases well supplied with orders,
and the aggregate Of the business of the past
month, as for the year thus far, is generally
referred to as in excess of last years bust
ness. Groceries are without any material
change. Trade is heavy and the de-
mand with the business of the month
of May bigger than ever before in the history
of the city. No change in quotations. Bust.
ness in dry goods is also reported for the last
month as being very large indeed, much
heavier than during the same month during
any other year. There has been a remarka-
bly, heavy run on all seasonable goods, such
as lawns, organizes, cambrics, ginghams,
etc. The order trade is splendid, and country
dealers are reported to be in good condition.
Drugs have been in active request all the se.:-
son and an unusually large business has
been reported all the year. A decline is
noted i'll oil peppermint ,turpentine and lard
oil. Hardware is active as usual Nails
have declined. In other articles there are no
changes.

The old stock of apples is about out but. as
few barrels still remain in the market the
quotations will be allowed to stand for a
while. But very few consignments of straw
berries were offered, and supplies consisted
at first almost entirely of Minnesota fruit.
The receipts were not quite up to what the
market required, and stocks were cleaned I'D
quite early i'll the day. The later receipts from
Illinois and Iowa, however helphed to carry
buyers through. Most Southern houses were
notified not to send any more to this market
as the Minnesota fruit is now coming in quite
freely. There is no improvement atall in
regard to butter. 1t is coming in in large
quantities, and stocks are accumulatinC
Only fair sales of cheese are reported and
prices are steady. Eggs are very firm and adj

Special t11he Globe.
DULUTH, June 7.-There was a good market
to-day and considerable wheat changed
hands. At the opening there was strong
feeling and prices were at the highest point
of the day. Free offers broke the market
14c@ssc, when it remained steady. The sell
ers finally became so numerous, and the
buyers SO decreased, that gradual break
took place, hstingllnti1 the close. The small
demandwas in great contrast to that of yes
feTday, which was hard,to supply. The free
selling was due in great measure to the adj
vance in lake rates,as great many New York
selling orders were on the market With the
easing up in vessel rates this will again be i'm
demand. The visible supply report showed
up in way that was unlocked for two days
ago, and, the = decrease was more
than was expected. The close was was
easy and &c below the opening. Cash
wheat sold at 72s4c early, for the strictly
fresh. At the close regular was worth SIC.
